In year three, we look to continue on with our pillars of the Gulfside Baseball Academy. Going forward, we will look to establish teams of 12-14 kids on a roster. If we manage to have enough kids we will create two teams. These teams WILL be dictated off of skill level. We want to provide the best environment for our players through all skill level. Kids will have opportunities to move up and down from teams, but we want to keep the kids on the same teams with out too much movement to create good relations with the teammates. In previous years, we would select kids for different tournaments out of a 30 kid group. We will move on from that. Your son will have to make one of the teams to participate with Gulfside, or choose to be a practice player.

Pricing- Families will now pay an upfront Gulfside membership. This membership will provide your player discounts on numerous Gulfside’s events as well as allow him to be part of our training and practices. After that membership is paid, families will then pay for each season they partake in. The Gulfside membership last 365 days! Therefore, whenever the membership is paid, the discounts (lessons, camps, gulfside apparel) and membership will last an entire year. The seasonal fees can be broken up through out the season.

What does price include?

The payments made to Gulfside will be for the field rentals, training equipment, coaches, and etc.. However and whatever we have to do to make a constant competitive environment for our players.

However, the price does NOT include uniforms and tournament fees. Uniforms and tournament fees will have to be purchased out of pocket. Although, bags and hats will remain constant in the Gulfside family, therefore returning players will only have to purchase the new uniform and pants. 

What is the price?

Prices all dictate on the age of your player and is posted during the registration process. All prices are VERY similar to the previous price you have experience in the previous season. 

What happens if my son doesn’t make the team, or we are unhappy with his placement and we paid already?

Families will have 7-10 days when hearing the placement of their kids to have the option to back out. If the player chooses to back out, all payments for that season will be refunded. After the ten days, any refund will follow per policy. 

The process.
